A step closer...

...to doing up my spare room! At last I might be able to scrap at a desk! Me and Ed have decided that next weekend we will clear the room out and then he will get started in the week after. We went to choose some flooring and a bit of furniture today at good old Ikea. I won't get too excited yet, as this could take longer than expected, but watch this space...

In the meantime, here are the next four pages of my Christmas journal. There will be five tomorrow as that will take us up to the end of my completed journal .

I haven't yet finished the thing in two attempts, maybe one year I will but I think I've got to start doing other things now or I'll get depressed that Christmas is now over and I'm back at work. I have a few things to do for SI and Papermaze, so that will keep me busy too.

Glad to see you back Miss and showing us your creations. Always good for the eye!I bet you are so excited to finally have a scraproom to call your own, I dont know what I would do without mine. I am such a messy scrapper and put nothing away and with time short nowadays, I start playing and put layouts together over a few days. I love the fact I can just close the door and hide it all!xx

Hello chloe, your blog always makes me smile, at the moment you're sounding like a girl after my own heart...I totally agree about the thickers (although I really wish they'd get it together on the vowels front, never enough!). A fellow DT member has been kind enough to give me a Fabby Blog award, and I now have to pass it on to five other people, so I'm going to pass one on to you! Please come and visit my blog where you'll find all the necessary x PS, I've knocked my US kit on the head, too, such a shame, but the postage is horrendous!

About Me

I am a history teacher in a big secondary school in Coventry. I teach kids about executing royalty, trench warfare and how to make lovely tea-stained pieces of work to staple to the classroom walls! I live with my husband, baby son and three little cats. I am a naturally creative person and discovered scrapbooking mid 2006. I was amazed (and proud!) to win Best of British New Talent for 2007. I was even more amazed to become part of the Design Team for Scrapbook Inspirations magazine in 2009. These days I am also doing a lot of knitting - easier to pick up and put down when you are busy!
